The Drama (2026) 81% 4.5/10 EDIT “The Drama is a very well-crafted, never-boring dark comedy that is unfortunately completely broken at its core, handling a loaded premise in ways that are unbelievable at best and offensively tacky at worst.” – Looper.com Apr 3, 2026 Full Review The Blue Trail (2025) 100% EDIT “With its beautiful imagery and gently quirky music, The Blue Trail play out as a more relaxing experience than you’d expect from a film about going on the lam in the dystopian future.” – Reactor Apr 3, 2026 Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 40% 7/10 EDIT “I can make no great intellectual defense of this movie, and it doesn't belong in any serious "Animation is Cinema" memes, but I had a good time.” – Looper.com Mar 31, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 95% 9/10 EDIT “Deeply hopeful, spectacularly produced, and equally adept at laughter and tears, Project Hail Mary is the best new movie to hit theaters so far this year.” – Looper.com Mar 10, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 94% EDIT “[F]or as long as you’re watching it, Hoppers defeats cynicism.” – Reactor Mar 6, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 83% 7/10 EDIT “You have to respect the sheer vision of this film, even if that vision doesn't always cohere.” – Looper.com Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Carousel (2026) 69% 5/10 EDIT “Carousel felt like it was missing something that could have made its quiet slice-of-life scenes a real emotional experience.” – Looper.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Josephine (2026) 95% 9.5/10 EDIT “In its artful, brilliantly acted exploration of the moment one learns that the world isn't "fair" and how we keep going in the face of evil, Josephine sets a high bar for all movies to come in 2026.” – Looper.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise (2025) B- EDIT “I had fun with Yumeginga Paradise, even if it wasn't as fun as the two seasons of television that preceded it.” – Anime News Network Jan 22, 2026 Full Review 100 Nights of Hero (2025) 68% 5.5/10 EDIT “Whatever happened in bringing this story to the big screen, 100 Nights of Hero starts off enjoyable enough in the moment, but by the time it ends, it's easy to feel underwhelmed.” – Looper.com Dec 2, 2025 Full Review The Red Spectacles (1987) B EDIT “Though I was a bit too baffled by The Red Spectacles to love it or declare it a great movie, I was never bored by it.” – Anime News Network Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 7/10 EDIT “It's good enough, but I could be happier.” – Looper.com Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% 5/10 EDIT “Maybe there's something I'm not getting here, but as far as I'm concerned, Die My Love comes alive in individual scenes yet feels stultifying as a whole.” – Looper.com Nov 5, 2025 Full Review Shelby Oaks (2023) 55% 4/10 EDIT “Stuckmann may very well have a good future ahead of him as a director, which is a polite way of saying he's not quite there yet with his first feature.” – Looper.com Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 87% 6/10 EDIT “It's never boring, but also never stunning — a success on its own unambitious terms that I nonetheless expect to mostly forget about.” – Looper.com Oct 11, 2025 Full Review Anemone (2025) 52% 4.5/10 EDIT “Even another great Daniel Day-Lewis performance can't push this into something I'd recommend. It's both a bummer and a bore.” – Looper.com Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Junk World (2025) 7.2/10 EDIT “Akin to Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal or Phil Tippett’s Mad God, the main appeal of Hori’s Junk series isn’t its plot but the amazement of its imagination and craft.” – Paste Magazine Sep 16, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 8.5/10 EDIT “Wake Up Dead Man lives up to the standards of quality set by the past two films. In a few ways, it's even better.” – Looper.com Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Scarlet (2025) 72% C- EDIT “Scarlet is both Hosoda's worst-written and worst-animated movie, though its weaknesses aren't apparent immediately.” – Anime News Network Sep 13, 2025 Full Review Exit 8 (2025) 97% B- EDIT “With its stylistic strengths, Exit 8 would make an amazing short film. As a feature, it's just good enough to enjoy.” – Anime News Network Sep 12, 2025 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 99% A- EDIT “The President’s Cake never gets preachy with its themes, instead sharing its political anger with the viewer through our empathy for its characters.” – AwardsWatch Sep 11, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 71% 5/10 EDIT “The meta-narrative of where The Smashing Machine fits into Johnson's career is more interesting than the film itself, which I found a bit of a bore.” – Looper.com Sep 10, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 7.5/10 EDIT “Taken on its own terms, Frankenstein is a compelling, at times moving, and utterly gorgeous epic. As a fan of both Del Toro and Shelley, I can't help but nitpick the details.” – Looper.com Sep 10, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 8/10 EDIT “This is a surprisingly sad movie — just one that also happens to be funny.” – Looper.com Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Together (2025) 89% 7.5/10 EDIT “Doing double duty as both a romcom and a twisted body horror movie is a tonal challenge that Together pulls off successfully, in large part thanks to how fun it is.” – Looper.com Jul 26, 2025 Full Review
